About this book
The Great Exhibition of 1851 held in Londons spectacular Crystal Palace was the first worlds fair and first industrial exhibition. For Britons it was even more-the Exhibition became the single defining event of the mid-nineteenth century. Enhanced by dozens of illustrations this book explains how the Exhibition was conceived why it was such a success and what it meant to millions of visitors and to later generations.
